'''Satan''' also known as the '''[[Devil]]''', is the embodiment of [[evil]].  Satan plays a major role in [[Christian]] theology, classical literature, and in other religions under different names.  He is the tempter and spiritual enemy of mankind. He is the adversary of [[God]], although subordinate to Him and able to act only by his sufferance, and is represented frequently as the leader or [[prince]] of all the fallen, apostate angels, and as ruler of [[hell]].
